Hm, looks like D-wave has a new CEO. Not sure when this occurred (?), but a reader sends along an email with an announcement from a recruiting (?) firm:
Lonergan Partners is pleased to announce that Vern Brownell has been named President and Chief Executive Officer of D-Wave Systems....

Thanks Dave. Good to hear of more D-wave fun and games.
BTW That bottom link is pointing to a Washington proxy. The real link is:
